Wide and Deep Convo: AI, Kickstarter and Publishing a book with Creative Director Chris Wojcicki

Shelly met Chris at Creative Supper Club dinner in Los Angeles, thanks to Caydie McCumber. They happened to sit next to each and quickly found common ground, as they were both embarking to live overseas. Shelly in London, and Chris to Barcelona.

The conversation hasn't stop since that dinner. That's why when you hop into this episode we're already in conversation.

We dive into AI and how Chris has used it with a client to show ideas for a Cannes project, which was green lit. Then we move into his graphic design background that infuses with and complimented by photography, video and animation.

All that mixed with his love of music, storytelling and books, ignited a passion project that he's been thinking about for ages. We get into the nitty gritty of how he found contributors, did a Kickstarter campaign, pushed through the unknowns and uncertainty, to finding a publisher that could bring his project to life.

Chris is now looking for contributors for book two, all about Spain. Hop over to the magazine (aka book) @pigeon_mag_ and check out Chris' IG and website too:@somekidstudio somekidstudio.com
